People have been asking me about the status of this story and I've been conflicted. Mainly because the version 2, [Born for the Apocalypse] -https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/52573/born-for-the-apocalypse

Is such a comprehensive update from the previous story when it comes to worldbuilding, writing quality and tension in the world, that I've kind of lost my motivation to continue writing this story. Negative ratings do impact an author, and a 4.04 with the top reviews being largely negative isn't really offering me much incentive to continue writing.

I was of a mind to release the 50k word backlog I have, but a lot of ideas in those have been used for the version 2, which just hit 100 pages, so it would be like spoilering my own story for others.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

So yeah, if you want to check out how far I've improved, you can check out the link down below or above. The reviews so far have been glowing, and people really seem to like the version 2, which is about a pragmatic man's approach to the apocalypse.

I'm sure some people will be dissappointed by my decision, but all I can promise you is that I only get better with practise, not worse. That does make me apologetic, but I've already explained my reasoning.

Well, I'll just post the synopsis here to make it simple for y'all:

The apocalypse arrived without warning— First Contact? Check. Eldritch horrors? Yup. Magical Powers? Right this way.

Welcome to a new, twisted world where the only remaining law was that of the jungle— where the weak perish and the strong prosper. Not all were fit or able to survive in the new world, but for Jack Fletcher, Doomsday Prepper, it turned out to be simple.

After all, he was born for this shit.
